Looks like it has a mintmark.

You could buy it and see if it gets confiscated as a genuine coin or if it gets confiscated as a counterfeit.
Come on.....shoot the lock off your wallet and post the outcome here.
Maybe send them a note to send it to PCGS in France. If they slab it, you’ll buy it.
Tooled....the threes are way off.

I would surmise that anything worth 4 figures plus would require certification by a top 3 certification company to be taken seriously.

If it was authentic, it would be worth more than four figures......If not confiscated. Cheers, RickO
If the allegations don’t get you, the mosquitoes will.
Can the US confiscate a coin in Europe?

@PerryHall .... Probably not, however, I am sure they would try every political trick in the books, and some that are not. Cheers, RickO
Yes.
Interesting tidbit on the 3
They changed them starting in 1930. The 1913 & 1923 had a flat top like this.
